Happy New Year
Thanks for the
Assuming you asked the question in good faith, here's the answer - https://www.cnn.com/2023/11/07/middleeast/palestinian-israeli-deaths-gaza-dg/index.html Thanks!
"which have resulted in 10,305 deaths, according to a spokesperson for the Palestinian Ministry of Health in the besieged enclave. CNN cannot independently verify the numbers released by the ministry."
You do realize that Hamas owns and controls the Palestinian Ministry of Health? Meaning that those numbers are sourced by Hamas. You are taking the word of terrorists at face value.
And now I see you're angry that I answered your question - which tells me that you did not in fact ask it in good faith.
The Israeli military controls all borders of Palestine and isn't interested in letting outside organizations in to verify how many Palestinians they've killed. Organizations have offered to come in and verify the number and they've been stopped by Israeli soldiers with automatic weapons. Israel doesn't let many journalists in either, as you can see.
But this isn't the first time this has happened, right? The Palestinian Ministry of Health releases estimates of the dead every time Israel attacks them and some people (usually those in favor of killing more Palestinians) say the numbers are false. Much later, outside groups like the UN are allowed in and they are able to verify very similar numbers.
Here's the track record of the Palestinian Ministry of Health as verified by the Associate Press and United Nations - https://apnews.com/article/israel-hamas-war-gaza-health-ministry-health-death-toll-59470820308b31f1faf73c703400b033 - Looks pretty reliable, right?
You answered it with an article that only repeats information Hamas released and allows to be released, information that does not include any way to separate militants from civillians and is somehow tallying up high numbers even when Israel is still discovering and counting their own dead bodies? Yeah, forgive me if I smell bullshit there.
The track record has the number of deaths being consistently less high than what the Ministry of Health claims and again does nothing to divide the militants from the innocent civillians, and with the civillians answer how many were collateral deaths and how many were deliberately targeted, and by whom. It only tells us that there were a lot of deaths occuring from warfare, which is the most obvious thing in the world.
And here's something to consider: Israel, as you said, controls *all borders of Palestine* and has occupied it for years, including the Gaza strip. Israel is also a government/military superpower. If Israel was primarily interested in seeing Palestine and all of its people completely wiped out, they could've done so a long time ago.
